Found the error - the username & password was also missing in the channel's streaming URL. Can you test the latest version (0.2.4)? I'm currently unable to test the fix, so any help would be appreciated...

You need to remove the channeldata.xml after updating to the new version, otherwise it will load the incorrect streaming URL.

Hoping for some help here if I may. I have xbmcbuntu installed and followed all these steps until ./bootstrap but then couldnt get any further (this was last week) I had to go out so left it thinking I could just start from the beginning the next day. My knowledge of Linux and how it works is very minimal but I can follow instructions. Can someone tell me what I should do I'm presuming the fact that I got most of the way means it is sitting there ready to be activated and that's why I can't just start all over again but I don't know what to do.
